Detector link color choice for map - Dale.Reid - 2020-01-14

I'm using the latest (v 3.6) map to watch activity in region 3, or the North America display, where I live in Wisconsin, USA.

Of course we participants are interested in our systems, when strikes are used for calculations and other signs of participation.  We have pride in participation.

I'm wondering, to that end, if there is a way to set a specific color to display when my station is used, in order to have that detector link color be unique to my stations and the rest of the links displayed be the color that is chosen from the configuration box?

I know it seems a wee bit self-important to do this, but if there were some way to have that coloration be different, it would for me at least make it a little more fun to watch the system in action.

I've built something in, but I'm not sure if it should be on the menu. If the SelectedStation parameter is set to a station number, the impact circles are drawn with a red border if the station has been used. Otherwise the border is white. After the circle animation, red circles with a white border remain instead of white circles with a red border.

Here is an example with station 2175:

By the way, the dark map was replaced by a hillshades Map.

You meant the line from your station to the strike, correct? I have long wished for that feature.

No, he means the circle at strike location.

Hi Mike,

Egon definitely means the circle. But if you open the drop-down menu, unchecking the detector link box turns off the lines. Smile
